Video: The "offside" goal which started the chaos at Barbourfields Stadium

The match between Dynamos and Highlanders had to be abandoned following crowd troubles after a hotly contested Dynamos goal.  According to the International Football Association Board (IFAB), the organisation responsible for writing and amending regulations that govern world football

If a defending player “deflects” a pass from an opponent which immediately goes to a player who was in an offside position then that player can be penalised for offside.

If a defending player deliberately plays the ball and it goes to a player who was in an offside position then that player is not penalised for offside. It does not matter if the ball does not go where the defender intended, if he played the ball deliberately then the Law does not exist to “save” his poor play.

So based on the above, do you think the goal was offside or not?
